Javid pips Johnson and Rees-Mogg to the top of the podium in our first Cabinet League Table of the new Government

A rolling list of all the senior members of the new Government. As we write, we have the Cabinet list plus those entitled to attend.

Ben Rogers: Raab should stand up for Hong Kong’s endangered freedom

Jeremy Hunt was the best Foreign Secretary of recent times – and his successor’s record gives me hope he will build on that legacy.

Johnson’s shuffle. If one asks for decisiveness – for an end to drift – don’t complain when it’s delivered.

We have the Government that we should have had then, ready to counter the charge that Vote Leave scurried away from Brexit, rather than manning up to deliver it.

The former Brexit Secretary adds that “collective responsibility around the Cabinet table” must be restored.

Johnson is set to face an early general election. His Cabinet must be ruthlessly shaped to fight it – on a No Deal platform.

Its members must be signed up to leaving on October 31. Here’s a rough draft of what the top team might look like.

Iain Dale: Dark arts, Williamson – and how vote-lending stuffed Raab, Stewart…and Gove
